Pocket Silhouettes swap card

I am participating in a swap group with a few other Demonstrators. Twila and Becky have blogs and are in the swap group but I am not sure about the details of the other ladies. I will add them later if they have blogs. This was last months card submission, anything from the new Fall Winter Idea book & Catalog. I chose Pocket Silhouettes.

To get the green background, I used a technique called reverse masking. I took a piece of scrap copy paper and punched 4 square scallops from the new SU square scallop punch. I overlapped the corners so the scallops would be even in the middle. I sponged through the mask with Kiwi kiss ink. Then I stamped the images over it with Chocolate chip ink.

I just finished this month card- I’ll share that this week.

ETA: I used a 4×4 pice of paper for the mask. Any size scrap paper will do as long as you can punch 4 squares from the scallop square punch and overlap the corners when you are punching.

Hi Jill,Thanks for the great and simple card. I copied this for a swap that I'm in and simplified (economized) the ribbon a little. I also used black cs instead of choc chip. Still used choc chip ink though. What a great design!! (I totally gave you credit on my recipe label!!).Thanks for your great ideas and inspiration! Melanie
